    hello Ruby, an ex french?


    4 years 3 months off meds

    no improvement or not visible feelings:

    prostate problems
    dry mouth and eyes and nose(sinusitis) (when lying horizontal in bed at night),
    right ear deaf and tinnitus
    memory cognition
    eyes focus
    some itching
    problem left arm muscles(the classic left side thing many have), seems worse
    i discovered i have bronchitis since years


    improvements i feel more and more:

    when i go on horizontal in bed i have first seconds very bad nerves head feelings between spine and neck head brain, difficult to describe
    inflammations of the nerves and muscles: stiffness, tension,
    leg muscles, arms, chest, spine, shoulders, neck, stomach, intestines, bladder etc
    exercize is not possible, only very mild walking, and some positions are not possible because of a lack of muscles or nerves(such as bend, pulling a wheel luggage and other particular positions)
    inflammations joints ankles, hips, elbows, chest, spine, knees,
    i think i have no more akathisia or 5%
    and with all this bad equilibrium, off balance
    anxiety without reason, chemical adrenal
    outdoor derealisation (up and down)
    better interaction with people
    very high emotional
    overactive autonomic nervous system


    new or change:

    when i stress, i have pain in arms and chest, after calm it goes away, i feel that i can have an action about it mentally, before i could not, too much numbed
    i have a small pain right between groin and begin ribcage(liver or colon or gallbladder or appendice ?), will not go to doctor

    all is still here with waves worse and better(the better do not seem windows)
    since maybe 5 months ago, i slowly improve, serious hope is back; i can say that during 3 years and 10 months off, i had not significant improvements
